"Sharon is Macie's friend. I don't know about anyone else," Edward said. "But she won't lead us to them anyway." He sighed again, clearly frustrated."Alright. Got it. I'll keep digging," Nathan replied.He was going to mention his encounter with Julian but then thought better of it. Macie had been a full-time housewife for two years. He figured that she probably didn't even know Julian. So, he decided to wait until he had more clarity before bringing it up.Once Nathan left, the office fell silent.Edward stopped eating and stared at his chat history with Macie on his phone.Unfortunately, only the recent messages from a few days ago remained. He had deleted everything else, leaving him with no memories to fall back on. A wave of sorrow and regret washed over him, and his eyes turned red again.It had already been four days, and there was still no sign of Macie. He didn't even know where she was. In this vast sea of people, it was the first time he truly understood what it felt

Macie didn't think Yosef would have given her number to Edward. After all, she had already made everything clear to him that morning. She thought that Edward wouldn't have a right to fault her for taking legal action if he had gotten her number elsewhere.Edward didn't answer her question. Instead, she could hear him muttering nonsense on the other end of the line. She lost her patience and said, "Not going to answer? Then I'm hanging up."Edward gritted his teeth and ultimately said, "I filed a missing persons report and told the police that you disappeared. Are you satisfied now?""You're insane."Macie and Edward were already divorced. She had even stepped aside for Sharon. So, why was Edward still clinging to her like a ghost that wouldn't disappear?"It's over between us. This is the last call, and there are a few things I need to set straight with you," Macie said coldly."Says who? Unless I agree, you can forget about divorcing me. Not in this lifetime!" Edward's furious v

At Julian's words, Macie had no choice but to get up and pack her things. If she stayed any longer, Julian would definitely think Palmer was giving her trouble.Julian handed her the elevator access card. She thanked him and said, "You didn't have to come find me in person. You could've just had your assistant pass it to me."He looked at her. He couldn't have used it as an excuse to walk her out if he hadn't brought it himself."We're on the same floor, and it was just nearby. That's why I didn't bother my assistant," he explained.In the elevator, Macie's phone rang again. She pulled it out and saw another unfamiliar number on her phone screen. Without hesitation, she added it to the block list. However, another strange number appeared before she could put the phone back in her bag.Her grip on the phone tightened. She blocked the new number and set her phone to silent mode."Is that another telemarketer?" Julian asked. He had been watching her from the corner of his eye.Ma

Nathan firmly said, "Mr. Fowler, it's true I wasn't there when you two met or got to know each other. I didn't witness the seven years you and Macie spent as classmates. But based on my recent observations, Macie really doesn't love you anymore."Edward's face darkened with rage. He was ready to lash out, but before he could speak, Nathan continued, "Didn't you buy Macie a new phone? I delivered it on your behalf. She didn't even want to accept it. She almost threw it straight into the trash."And that meal you had delivered. Do you know why she ate it? It was because I didn't tell her that it came from you. I told her that it was from the Fowler family. Otherwise, she might've poured it straight down the drain."Haven't you been in love before? Maybe with your ex-girlfriend? Don't you get it? The first sign a woman's stopped loving you is when she turns cold and distant. That's exactly what's happening now. Macie doesn't even answer your calls."Edward stood frozen. His eyes were

Nathan was starting to regret helping Edward realize his feelings. He felt the usual Edward was more real—this version in front of him seemed like a man possessed.He even thought it might be better if Ethan went back to liking Sharon than staying in this mess.Suddenly, the two of them seemed like a better match.After hesitating several times, Nathan still express his true thoughts. He was afraid that Edward would break down completely and spiral into depression."Macie was hurt so deeply by you. Think about it. Do you really think she'll forgive you that easily?" Nathan asked, trying to reason with him.Hearing that, Edward clenched his fists tighter, overcome with guilt and regret. He knew exactly how he had treated Macie, especially over the past month.He had pushed her so hard that she fractured her tailbone. During the gas leak, he had left her behind. Even if it wasn't on purpose, Macie had nearly died.He was guilty beyond redemption. He knew that Macie wouldn't forgiv
